And the Summer Fun Continues

So, I think I mentioned earlier that we have a summer bucket list that me and the kids at home are trying to work through this summer. First, they all do their chores. Once that is done, we can try to do one of the things on the list. So, here's a few photos from our various adventures.

Tautphas Zoo is always fun. It just happened to be raining on the day we went, but we were all armed with umbrellas so we had fun anyway.




Another day, we checked out the Pirates! exhibit at the Museum.

This week we tried out Blast Off! Overpriced, but fun for the little kids. Phoebe was a little too old for some of the stuff, so she was disappointed she couldn't play in the ball pit. The climbing wall was a hit with everyone, though.










And, last but not least, the Rexburg Carousel and Splash Park. My sister watched the kids for a few hours while I got my hair done, then we headed to the park. She stopped by with a couple of her kids--most of them were busy doing other things--then Austin and Leah stopped by and said hi. We stopped just in time for the Tornado Warning, and were heading out of Rexburg with Kari Ann's gelati's, watching out the window for funnel clouds.

April 2023

  April 2023 On April 1 and 2 we chilled and watched General Conference. On the first, we got a new cat to replace Todd. This cat’s name is Taco, she is a girl, and she’s a tortoiseshell calico. She and Binx have taken quite a while to warm up to each other, but I think we’ll get there. She is cuddly like Todd, so we all like that.  On April 4 I watched Season 3 of The Mandalorian with my dad. On the 5 th , Kory and I took Austin and Leah to the Bee’s Knees for a birthday dinner. They have really great food there and it was fun to visit.  On April 6, we had BYUI Graduation. It was fun to be there, since I’ve missed the past year due to my cancer. On the 7 th , Kory, me, and Caleb babysat for Austin and Leah. It was fun putting the kids to bed and singing with them. Stevie loves the song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” so we sang that a bunch. On April 8, Kory and I went on a little date. We drove up to Driggs and had dinner at O’ Rourkes and then stopped and visited with m...

Pie Face

Chloe had her tenth birthday and she asked for the game Pie Face. Yep, you've seen it. The one where everyone takes turns getting whipped cream in the face. Here are some precious moments. Chloe also got a little fort-making kit for her birthday, so we've had these structures in the family room for a few weeks now.

January/February 2023

  January 2023 On January 3 we helped Caleb move back into his apartment on campus and took Phoebe to Fuji for her birthday dinner. On the 7 th , we went to Austin and Leah’s and had some delicious Olive Garden takeout and watched some of Matilda the Musical. On January 12, we went through the Rexburg temple with my niece Maddie. On January 14 th , I went to a baby shower for my niece Kami. She is the first grandchild to have a baby, so this will be my parents first great-grandchild. On the 27 th , we had a new addition to our household. That afternoon, Phoebe asked me if there was any way we could consider getting another cat. Her friend had to move and wouldn’t be able to take the cat to the new location. For some reason, I agreed, and she picked him up that afternoon. He’s an orange cat, and was originally named Scar, but our girls named him Todd after the Fox and the Hound . Binx was NOT happy at the new family member. He hissed and growled at Todd, who didn’t seem overly c...
